This study aimed to investigate the effect of defensive pessimism on relationship satisfaction among never-married individuals and examine whether marital attitudes moderated these two variables. The researcher adopted the questionnaire survey approach in this survey, and collect 368 valid samples from 20-35 year-old never-married individuals, who were currently or had previously been in an romantic relationship. The research instruments included the Revised Defensive Pessimism Questionnaire, the Relationship Assessment Scale, and the Marital Attitudes Scale. Statistical analyses, including descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson product-moment correlation, multiple regression and hierarchical regression analyses, were conducted with SPSS. The main findings are as follows: I. Status of defensive pessimism, relationship satisfaction, and marital attitudes: (i) Never-married individuals reported relatively high levels of overall defensive pessimism, with higher score on the negative reflectivity dimension than the pessimistic expectations dimension. (ii) Never-married individuals reported relatively high relationship satisfaction. (iii) Never-married individuals relatively positive overall marital attitudes, with the highest scores on the behavioral dimension, followed by the affective dimension and cognitive dimension. II. Correlations among defensive pessimism, relationship satisfaction, and marital attitudes: (i) Overall defensive pessimism was significantly negatively correlated with relationship satisfaction among never-married individuals. (ii) Overall marital attitudes were significantly positively correlated with relationship satisfaction among never-married individuals. (iii) Overall defensive pessimism was significantly negatively correlated with overall marital attitudes among never-married individuals. III. Moderating effect of marital attitudes between defensive pessimism and relationship satisfaction: Individuals with more positive cognitive dimension of marital attitudes would weakened the negative impact of pessimistic expectations from defensive pessimism on relationship satisfaction. IV. The impact of different background variables on defensive pessimism, relationship satisfaction and marital attitudes: (i) Significant differences were found in overall marital attitudes, and its cognitive and behavioral dimensions based on biological sex. (ii) Significant differences were found in overall defensive pessimism and its pessimistic expectation dimension, relationship satisfaction, cognitive and behavioral dimensions from marital attitudes based on relationship status. (iii) Significant differences were found in overall marital attitudes and its cognitive dimension based on sexual orientation.參考文獻 一、中文部分 丁鈺珊、戴嘉南、吳明隆(2014)。大學生家庭價值觀、人際關係依附風格與婚姻態度之相關研究-以高雄市為例。家庭教育與諮商學刊,17,1-31。 內政部戶政司(2023)。初婚者之年齡平均數。取自https://www.gender.ey.gov.tw/gecdb/Stat_Statistics_DetailData.aspx?sn=aeFG0R2tHwmrDtITC%24JSaA%40%40 宋鶴玲(2022)。經濟與愛情吸引力對情感投入與結婚意願的影響:婚姻不安全感的調節效果。﹝未出版之碩士論文﹞。銘傳大學。 李介至(2007)。自我保護策略之認知歸因取向及其與內外化行為之關係:高/低因果不確定組別之等同比較。中華輔導學報,22,33-70。http://dx.doi.org/10.7082/CARGC.200709.0033 李介至、陳泉源、梁滄郎(2010)。防禦悲觀者的動機分析及在成就評價後之情緒適應:以潛在成長模式分析為例。教育心理學報,41(4),733-750。https://doi.org/10.6251/BEP.20090302 李介至、黃孟儒、梁滄郎(2009)。防禦悲觀者、樂觀者及悲觀者在焦慮及反思策略之差異:高/低任務難度及工具性之調節效果。中華輔導與諮商學報,26,239-270。https://doi.org/10.7082/CJGC.200909.0239 李閏華(1993)。父母婚姻關係對子女婚姻態度影響之研究:以臺中市未婚在學學生為對象。﹝未出版之碩士論文﹞。東海大學。 卓紋君(2004)。臺灣人愛情風格之分析研究。中華輔導學報,16,71-117。https://doi.org/10.7082/CARGC.200409.0071 林素秋(2017)。成年早期的家庭價值觀與婚姻態度對結婚之影響。〔未出版之碩士論文〕。國立臺灣師範大學。 林清文(2005)。自我價值保護策略。教育研究月刊,133,137-138。 林喬瑩(2006)。高中職學生異性相處、知覺父母婚姻關係與其婚姻態度之研究。﹝未出版之碩士論文﹞。國立嘉義大學。 林儒君(2005)。大學生異性交往之親子溝通與婚姻態度之相關研究。餐旅暨家政學刊,2(3),451-472。 金家瑜(2016)。大學生的防禦性悲觀、完美主義與學業拖延之相關研究。﹝未出版之碩士論文﹞。中國文化大學。 徐光國(2003)。婚姻與家庭。揚智出版。 翁育翎(2016)。高雄市未婚成人愛情風格與婚姻態度之關係研究。〔未出版之博士論文〕。國立高雄師範大學。 張妤玥、陸洛(2007)。愛情關係中對方衝突管理方式與自身關係滿意度之關連。中華心理衛生學刊,20(2),155-178。https://doi.org/10.30074/FJMH.200706_20(2).0003 張瑞真(2001) 。國小未婚教師性別角色、成就動機與婚姻態度之研究。〔未出版之碩士論文〕。國立嘉義大學。 陳乃綺(2012)。臺北地區未婚男女愛情風格與婚姻態度〔未出版之碩士論文。〕國立臺東大學。。 陳成宏(2017)。哀兵必勝:學校行政人員使用防禦性悲觀策略之探討。學校行政,111,83-106。https://doi.org/10.3966/160683002017090111005 陳盈帆(2022)。防禦性悲觀與實習壓力知覺對專業成長表現之影響—從諮商全職實習經驗探討。﹝未出版之碩士論文﹞。淡江大學。 陳湘柔(2015)。成人愛情態度與愛情關係滿意度之相關研究。﹝未出版之碩士論文﹞。國立臺中教育大學。 彭志文(2019)。高雄地區大學生愛情觀與婚姻態度之研究。〔未出版之碩士論文〕。國立屏東大學。 楊靜利(2004)。同居的生育意涵與台灣同居人口估計。台灣社會學刊,32,189-213。 蔡延翊(2020)。防衛性悲觀與心理適應之關聯:正負向情緒比值的調節效果。﹝未出版之碩士論文﹞。中原大學。 衛生福利部國民健康署(2018)。105年家庭與生育調查報告。取自https://www.hpa.gov.tw/Pages/Detail.aspx?nodeid=370&pid=1289 顏欣怡、卓紋君(2013)。大學生情侶之愛情風格、溝通姿態、關係滿意度及關係承諾度之探討-對偶分析研究。中華心理衛生學刊,26(3),443-485。https://doi.org/10.30074/FJMH.201309_26(3).0005 二、外文部分 Ajzen, I.

The researcher adopted the questionnaire survey approach in this survey, and collect 368 valid samples from 20-35 year-old never-married individuals, who were currently or had previously been in an romantic relationship. The research instruments included the Revised Defensive Pessimism Questionnaire, the Relationship Assessment Scale, and the Marital Attitudes Scale. Statistical analyses, including descriptive statistics, independent sample t-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson product-moment correlation, multiple regression and hierarchical regression analyses, were conducted with SPSS. The main findings are as follows: I. Status of defensive pessimism, relationship satisfaction, and marital attitudes: (i) Never-married individuals reported relatively high levels of overall defensive pessimism, with higher score on the negative reflectivity dimension than the pessimistic expectations dimension. (ii) Never-married individuals reported relatively high relationship satisfaction. (iii) Never-married individuals relatively positive overall marital attitudes, with the highest scores on the behavioral dimension, followed by the affective dimension and cognitive dimension. II. Correlations among defensive pessimism, relationship satisfaction, and marital attitudes: (i) Overall defensive pessimism was significantly negatively correlated with relationship satisfaction among never-married individuals. (ii) Overall marital attitudes were significantly positively correlated with relationship satisfaction among never-married individuals. (iii) Overall defensive pessimism was significantly negatively correlated with overall marital attitudes among never-married individuals. III. Moderating effect of marital attitudes between defensive pessimism and relationship satisfaction: Individuals with more positive cognitive dimension of marital attitudes would weakened the negative impact of pessimistic expectations from defensive pessimism on relationship satisfaction. IV. The impact of different background variables on defensive pessimism, relationship satisfaction and marital attitudes: (i) Significant differences were found in overall marital attitudes, and its cognitive and behavioral dimensions based on biological sex. (ii) Significant differences were found in overall defensive pessimism and its pessimistic expectation dimension, relationship satisfaction, cognitive and behavioral dimensions from marital attitudes based on relationship status.
